What happens if someone flags one of my comments?

What happens when someone flags one of your comment depends on a few factors.

First, how many people have flagged your comment?

If fewer than three people flag your comment, then someone at Illinois Legal Aid Online will probably review the comment to decide if it violates our Terms of Use.

If three or more people flag your comment, it might automatically be considered a violation of our Terms of Use.

Second, how many violations have you had?

If this is the first violation, your comment could be deleted and you could receive a warning email.

If this is the second violation, your comment could be deleted, you could receive a second warning email, and your account could be suspended for up to 72 hours. You won't be able to post comments during this time.

If this is the third violation, your comment could be deleted, your account could be permanently disabled, and you would no longer be able to post comments.

Please see ourTerms of Usefor more information. If you think one your comments was flagged by mistake, please Contact Us.
